The Law of Cause and Effect

From the 12 Kaws of Karma:

1. The Great Law. “As you sow, so shall you reap”. This is also known as the law of cause and effect. Whatever we put out in the Universe is what comes back to us. If what we want is Happiness, Peace, Love and Friendship…..then we should be Happy, Peaceful, Loving and a True Friend.

For most of my life, I’ve known about the Great Law. But just lately, by studying A Course in Miracles, and also working with the coach training program of You University and understanding that Life is a School, is that I am becoming clearer that this Great Law is about CAUSE AND EFFECT.

This revelation really made me aware that I am not a victim of life…but more so a creator of my circumstances as a result of my belief system, my thought habits, my choices. All of a sudden, my mindset has started to shift from complaining and feeling a victim of what’s out there, to asking myself: did I create this? Why? What do I need to learn about myself through this person or situation? I’m realizing it’s all about me, not them. I’m responsible. As a result, I feel I have grown and am much more empowered and strong, and happier too.
